loss on focus after release-action

We're using webdriverio to execute automated tests on Safari.

This w3c command causes lost of element focus:

[DELETE/session/{session id}/actions]
Command „releaseAction“
"DELETE": {
"command": "releaseActions",
"description": "The Release Actions command is used to release all the keys and pointer buttons that are currently depressed. This causes events to be fired as if the state was released by an explicit series of actions. It also clears all the internal state of the virtual devices.",
"ref": "https://w3c.github.io/webdriver/#dfn-release-actions",
"parameters": []
}
},

after element was hovered-on:

performActions([{
type: 'pointer',
id: 'pointer1',
parameters: { pointerType: 'mouse' },
actions: [{ type: 'pointerMove', duration: 0, x: newXOffset, y: newYOffset }]
}])
